Have a look at this site ..<div><a href="http://www.merimobiles.com/MID_V7_Android_2_2_VIA_VM8650_800Mhz_p/meri0619.htm">http://www.merimobiles.com/MID_V7_Android_2_2_VIA_VM8650_800Mhz_p/meri0619.htm</a></div><div><br></div>
<div>They have many such variants of Android ..</div><div>Minimum one is just $72 and even though if you get it shipped with the best possible manner .i.e EMS Express 6-8 Days .. the total will be 72 + 22 = $94 i.e. just Euros 70 .</div>
<div><br></div><div>I definitely know there must be some other cheap variants as well all from China and have almost the same configuration.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jan 30, 2012 at 8:19 PM, Dr. H.

&gt;&gt; Anyway - in my opinion so far this is a lot of fuzz about hardly anything.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; It&#39;ll be one of very few tablets that run linux without needing an anti-vendor<br>
&gt; port. That&#39;s a good thing in my book, even if it&#39;s not ideal.<br>
<br>
</div>It was an intersting experience when we did the Letux 400 3 years ago. It already<br>
came with Linux (2.4.20) and there was a 2.6.24 kernel. And a 2.6.31 project.<br>
<br>
I.e. a full netbook with Debian and WLAN @ 129 EUR. A nice machine when it<br>
came out. And still nice to open and learn electronics (schematics are public).<br>
<br>
Anyways, we still have some of them [1]...<br>
<br>
Nobody was/is interested in a really low cost device. It very soon lacks important<br>
features and the processor is outdated.<br>
<br>
This is the reason why we strive for high-end in the GTA04. Even if it makes<br>
it expensive for the masses. This avoids becoming obsolete before it<br>
starts shipping.<br>
